Kroeung is a traditional Cambodian spice paste used as the foundation for many Khmer dishes. This aromatic blend typically includes lemongrass, galangal, turmeric, kaffir lime leaves, garlic, and shallots, all finely chopped or ground into a vibrant paste. Known for its deep, earthy flavors, Kroeung is versatile and comes in various types, such as red, yellow, or green, depending on the dish. Nutritionally, it boasts health benefits due to its ingredients; turmeric contains anti-inflammatory properties, while lemongrass and garlic are known for their antioxidant and digestive benefits. Additionally, Kroeung is low in calories and fat, making it a flavorful yet light addition to meals. However, sodium content might increase if used alongside high-salt condiments in recipes, so moderation is key. Widely embraced for its bold taste and nutritional richness, Kroeung is a cornerstone of Cambodian cuisine and a delightful way to enhance any dish.
